Great simple layout, but the bookmarks bar is missing.
This is a really nice NTP extension. It not only gets rid of the incessant GOOGLE-IN-YOUR-FACE, but is customizeable to a high degree. Custom CSS lets you change icon background to transparent, and size of the icons can be set via the export/import function (adjust value of appIconSize in export pane, select all, copy and paste to import pane, and import).
Kudos to the Dev .. this one is a keeper.
this extension is great. dont really know how this is not higher in some of the basic search terms for this type of extension. this extension really gives google chrome alot less branding, and is simple to use. i cant rate this higher than 5 stars, but if i could it would be 10 stars out of 5. great for somebody looking for a fresh coat of paint to their browser.
